Cant hear my guitar playing

Hello
I have my electric guitar plugged via a M Audio Firewire Solo Audio Interface.
When I add a guitar track in GB, I cant hear what I am playing. I can see the volume recording bars move when I strum, but I cant get any output. I have monitoring On, all volumes are up, but no audio
Atrangely enough when I use Logic, I can hear fine.
What up with Garageband?

Cant Hear My Guitar

Hello I recorded a rythm guitar track and I can hear it but when I press the PLAY button in multitrack it mutes my windows play control line in input lol. So I cant hear myself playing to practice the solo for the solo guitar track before recording and its getting very very annoying. Someone knows how to fix that in AA3 options? Thanks in advance.

It's not really possible to answer this one with the information you've provided (hence the lack of replies so far) but I can try to give you some general guidelines.
For the most part, the routing of signals in and out of Audition isn't handled by AA itself but, rather, by Windows and/or the software that was installed in Windows by your sound card.
The basic thing you need to do is set this software (often the "Windows Mixer") so that, on the playback side, you're listening to something called "Wave Out" or "Stereo Mix" or similar. On the recording side, you will want this selected to "Line In" or "Mic In" or similar.
However, this is where it gets complicated because there are a lot of variations in exactly how to do this, based both on your version of Windows and the make/model of sound card installed in your PC. Complicating this further are things like the rather convoluted audio setup in the most recent versions of Windows (Vista and Windows 7) and also the fact that some basic on-board sound cards are so basic that they don't support the kind of things you wish to do. You MAY find you need to invest in a relatively inexpensive USB2 external card.
There are also a couple of things within Audition to check. Under the Edit menu, click on "Audio Hardware setup" and make sure that the sound card you wish to use is selected as the default output. On the same menu there's also a drop down menu to select the software driver you wish to use--this will likely be correct but if you find more than one option you'll lose nothing by trying another one (so long as you put it back as it was if that doesn't help).
Sorry to be so vague but, as you can hopefully see, giving a specific answer will depend on having details of the Windows version and sound card you are using plus details of how you're trying to route your audio at present.

Cant hear track plugins in play or record?

I am running Logic pro 9.
I can select plugins for tracks OK.
When I select play or record I cant hear the plugins?

O...kay...
Are you talking about instruments on an instrument track (e.g. EXS24), and when you play or record via your MIDI keyboard you are not hearing anything?
Or are you talking about effect plugins on an audio track and you're not hearing the processing?
Are you getting any sound out of Logic at all?
Need a bit more info here...

Why on firefox browser on videos i cant hear sound it just playing and just gone.

Why on firefox browser on videos i cant hear sound it just playing and just gone. The sound dissapearing on all videos. Please help me i tried some solutions but it not fixed. Thank you.

Did you check the volume setting in that Flash Player?
Try to clear the Flash local storage and settings.
*Windows Control Panel > Flash Player > Storage: Local Storage Settings
**Remove a specific domain: Local Storage Settings by site
**Remove all domains: Delete All and Delete Data
Flash Website Storage Settings panel:
*http://www.macromedia.com/support/documentation/en/flashplayer/help/settings_manager07.html
Global Storage Settings Panel:
*http://www.macromedia.com/support/documentation/en/flashplayer/help/settings_manager03.html
You can click the Volume icon on the Windows Taskbar near the clock and click the Mixer link at the bottom to open the mixer.<br />
You can adjust the volume level for each application in that window, so make sure that Firefox is not muted or set at a low level.<br />
Current Firefox versions use the plugin-container process to run plugins, so you need to check the volume setting for the plugin-container process.<br />
You will only see the Firefox program or the Plugin Container in the Mixer if you are on a website that plays sound.

Recording a class of 30 kids singing to a guitar track I laid down on Garage Band. Severe distortion because they have to hear the guitar track through a set of speakers..

I had a big setback today on a project I've been working on. I recently made my first recording of my own playing and singing, a guitar track and a vocal track of a children's song. When I recorded the guitar track, it took me a whole day to get it right. I used the metronome through earbuds. Then I listened to the guitar track and sang into a Snowball mike to get the vocal track down. Played separately or together, they came out crisp, clear, no dostortion. I made a CD of the song by sending the song to iTuines, with and without my voice so the children could practice to it. I taught the song to 30 fifth graders so I could add a vocal track of them singing. My plan is to use it as the music for a slideshow I'm making for their elementary graduation. I'm a mom, not their teacher. The teachers of the two classrooms have been generous in letting me teach the kids the song, and setting up 45 minutes for me to record it. Did the recording of the kids today at the school. Two tracks of all 30 kids doing their very best to cooperate. They sang well. I opened the garage Band file at home and it is such poor quality audio that it is UNUSABLE. There's a lot of fuzz and distortion. I can probably get their teachers to let me have them again to give it another try, but I better get it right. When I recorded my own voice to the guitar track, I monitored using earbuds. I can't hook 30 kids up to my Macbook with earbuds. I played the guitar track from speakers and held the microphone out toward them, so the mike was between the speakers and the kids. The speakers and mike both faced the kids. They sang really well, so it was pretty disappointing to find the recording sounded so bad. My guitar teacher tried to help me figure out what to do, but he thinks it is going to be very tricky to get it right since the kids have to hear the guitar track to sing it. I'm considering playing the CD I made of the guitar track from a boom box behind the kids and just recording the kids on a separate project file and losing the ability to edit, and probably losing most of the guitar quality and volume. But I won't know if it works until I have 30 kids and 2 teachers and all my gear set up to actually try it. Whatever I do, it has to work on my next try. There's very little time left and no budget. I thought my Macbook Pro and the Snowball, purchased at the Apple Store, would be enough.
Please advise. Thanks.

Very difficult recording situation. I would probably just record the kids with you playing live guitar.
You could do the boombox with the kids and set it up so the kids hear the guitar but try to get as little as possible of the prerecord guitar on the the track. Then either mix the kids recording with the original guitar track or add a guitar track to the kids track later.
When you do the recording of the kids bring headphones to monitor levels. Also make sure you're happy with the track before you leave the school.

Cant hear from rear speak

I have installed my new Audigy 2 ZS hardware and software in concordance with my logitech z-5300e 5. surround sound speakers. For some reason, i cant hear from the rear speakers.. but not like nothing. I go into the EAX console and i play the song from there and i can hear music out of the back speakers for sure, but then i load counterstrike and do the surround sound test and i hear nothing from the speakers, i load musicmatch and i can hear from the rear speakers. THe reason i bought the surround sound was for FPS game improvement... can anyone help me out, why is it not playing when i want it to?

Under games, it doesn't matter. As long as your game supports DirectSound3D or OpenAL, it will support any number of speakers, according to your soundcards configuration.
To test functionality under DirectSound3D, I suggest using Rightmark 3DSound test
The positiong is very clear as long as you select Hardware Acceleration. Also some games need you to select output configuration, although this is against Microsoft's suggestions.

Cant hear monitor when using usb mic

hey all, question. when my usb mic is plugged in and armed for recording, i cant hear the previous track to keep my timing. the built in mic isnt that great so i like to use my external. its like when its plugged in it overrides all monitor functions. i just wanna be able to record a track while the previous one plays back. thanks guys for the help with an obvious newby.

Make sure you have the correct output selected in GB Prefs>Audio/MIDI. I assume you're using your computer speakers? If so select Built-In Output. Also make sure the recorded Track isn't muted and that the volume is up.

Cant hear audio when I scrub

How to hear audio when I scrub in project library. Cant hear any sound when I scrub. I do when it plays back I move9

Scrubbing or 'skimming' as Apple calls it is controlled by a button on the Toolbar in iMovie:
The button on the left hand side is an audio waveform with a red-line drawn through it. This indicates skimming is turned off. To turn it on you just click it and the skimming feature will return.

I have videos on my ipod but cant hear them...help please

I have an iPod video (30GB) and i tried to put videos on it but it didnt work until apple brought out an update on iTunes to convert the videos for you which i used and converted the videos and there on my iPod and i can watch them but i cant hear anything when i play them!! I can hear my normal music fine and i can see the videos but i cant hear them!! Please help!!

Quicktime, Quicktime Pro and iTunes don't convert "muxed" (multiplexed where the audio and video are stored on the same track) video files properly. It only plays the video and not the audio.
See:iPod plays video but not audio.
You need a 3rd party converter to convert the file with both audio and video.
Search this forum for recommendations, but beware of spammers trying to sell you their own product.
